Explanation:
- Life at sea during sail was rough. Sailors had to cope with overcrowding, disease, malnutrition, and poor weather.
- Over the centuries, navigators from the years of early explorers to the time of the Trafalgar War in 1805, shared many common objects. The seafaring men had much to offer; cut off from normal coastal life for months, even years, they had to accept overcrowding, disease, malnutrition and pay. Above all, they faced the daily dangers of the sea and the weather.
- Sailors' lives were difficult, and they had to struggle to survive, so the ship's crew maintained strict discipline on the ship. In this way they hoped to maintain high moral standards and to prevent rebellions.
- The sailors may be ‘paved and feathered’, tied to a rope, thrown into the water and ducked or ‘pulled with a keel-hauled’, dragged around the bottom of the boat. Beatings were the most common, all employees were often viewed. The end of the rope, or the famous' cat o 'nine tails', was used. A sailor found guilty of sedition or murder was to be hanged in the courtyard.
